After a few dinkfests on the big river, the better fish are finally chewing.
No magnums yet, but a dozen fun sizers eating on top made for a very enjoyable few hours of wading.

One bass had some sort of parasite or lice on it. Has anyone ever seen this before?

Also got checked by a very nice CO. We had a good chat about the ridiculous turkey and deer limits and the dramatic population declines. It was a very nice encounter and I wish the state would invest in more officers to better protect our outdoor resources.
